Me when my cat knocks my glass of milk off of my desk

There are two ways to begin writing at a pace you will be satisfied with: Hard Drugs Sleep Deprivation Also, for directions to write in, starting in the top right and going across the page, followed by down a line, is usually the best direction to go in. There's no shortcut for this stuff...

Ah the good ole exaggerated swagger>infectious flirtation>insatiably horny>incompetent Muppet>mentally exhausted>exaggerated swagger character cycle. Personally, I figure out where I started my character within this cycle when they entered the story, and do my best to ensure that most...

You know Planeswalking in Magic: The Gathering? I want to be a pre-mending walker. Not quite a god, no responsibilities or pesky omniscience to deal with, but enough power and freedom to live whatever sort of life you want to out in the multiverse, or perhaps several hundred different lives. You...

Ok, hear me out: Realistic time dilation. A post-FTL space opera setting, focusing on the nature of FTL communications being used for mundane stuff, like dating. A star-crossed (perhaps quite literally) romance where the tragedy is that they can't be together because one or the other of them...

It's about realism (no, not realism as in 'like nihilistic views on real life', actual realism). If I can't believe your world or story would be as lighthearted in tone as it presents itself, I have a problem with it. Conversely, if I can't believe your world or story would be as dark as it...

On a different site (In a different life and a different time at this point, with how long its been since I logged in to it) I have a fic that is solely about an undead that has been given sapience, that later ends up creating more undead of its own. One of the main ethical questions I had for...

I didn't sneak in I swear! and the watching part... Look if you leave the door unlocked you can't really blame me! It's practically my house too if you don't take the necessary precautions to keep me out!

So. I've started yet another of a steadily growing collection of documents in my file folder I call 'procrastination novels'. It works like this: You start a project. Get really, really invested into properly planning and editing and preparing that project, and then- You open a new document...

I learned a life hack for dialogue from my Sophomore English teacher. She taught me to just write out nothing but the words the characters have spoken until you've completed the dialogue exchange, the go back and add break things up to add dialogue markers, breaks for a paragraph or two of...

You mean, like a serial killer?

Brother I use Crimson text in 10, I'm not judging

Go into whatever doc you use to write your story or stories. Do CTRL+A, change formatting to double line spacing, change font to times new roman, and font size to 12. Now look at how many pages that is. That's how many pages of standard hardcover book you've written. You're welcome.

The trick is twofold: 1. Each individual pairing needs to make sense. The 'keypiece' of the harem needs to have valid, logically and emotionally consistent relationships with each harem member. 2. The members of the harem furthermore have logically and emotionally consistent reasons for it...

If you ever feel like writing lore isn't the same as writing an actual story, kindly remember that LoTR exists because a guy made several languages and then felt the need to justify them with lore. The story didn't come until much later. So yes, yes it does.

Have an alt-reality earth where history happened the exact same way it has on our regular earth, but Earth is a ringworld(like Halo), so you can look up from New York and see across the Atlantic with a big enough telescope. Would be a really cool setpiece.

No. Similarly to how a character becoming genderless (like all those Slime Isekais that happened after Tensura went mainstream) aren't gender-benders, the gender identity of the character is still female, just like how Rimuru's gender identity is still clearly male. When in doubt, ask if you...

Title is the only question. I'll go first: My protagonist is heavily based on characters with a strong sense of drama (like Lelouch from Code Geass or King George III from Hamilton the Musical), mixed with a poetic and brutal sense of justice, plus a healthy dose of confident and consenual (but...

300 page document with hyperlinks to previous chapters and author's notes serving as the only organizational elements.

Guy who read Hamlet once, watched Technoblade's perspective on the Dream SMP, and spent so long writing self-insert stories about himself getting pegged that the combination of the three became his personality.
